OMG I’ve got a job interview!

After 16 years of working in retail doing rubbish hours I’ve finally got a job interview working in an office based role Mon-Fri 8-5.

I honestly didn’t think I’d get an interview and now I’m petrified, I’ve never had an official interview in my life!

What the hell do I wear? I’ve only got ballet flats or some heeled ankle boots that I only really wear on nights out, are they suitable do you think? I don’t own anything smart except some plain black cigarette pants and a blue blouse. Or maybe a black floral dress?

Oh god oh god!!

What should I say tomorrow about my interview on Monday? 😬

Nothing

But I think I’ll be offered a job at the supermarket tomorrow and I don’t want to turn it down in case I don’t get the office job.

Say that you'll consider it. You don't have to say yes or no on the spot.

Interested in this thread?

You can consider the supermarket job - say you'll get back to them

Or say yes to the supermarket job and then pull out if you get the office job

Either way is fine imo

Hum, difficult one.

Don't say anything about the other interview at all. If they offer it to you on the spot, say you'll consider it and get back to them.

So OP how did it go??

ColinsVeryJolly · 13/11/2018 12:36

Thanks for asking @Bunnyhop1502!

It was ok I think. I was sooooo nervous beforehand but was quite calm when I went in. The people who interviewed me were really nice so it felt quite relaxed.

I’m not sure I’m what they’re looking for but who knows, maybe Sally’s blouse will bring me luck Grin
